If I can get the fuel system redone, the tranny in, a converter built, and keep the blower from eating belts anywhere over 10psi... I might be in for a little trip. BTW- The Orange on Black looks really slick.

My car is slow, but yo seriously thats an insane cruise without much point. 350 miles is out of my range I think. Sounds fun though.

When we did the Mesa to Canyon Lake cruise (I think some heads were from AZSS) it was mostly all f-bodies and about 18 cars and some bikes total. Good times hearing the cars roaring on the highway.

That would be the most amazing cruise in AZ history I think. Who's managing this?

Wouldnt it be more fun to have a track night or somthing?

Thats just such a distance and with everyone racing on the highway (which is a no brainer), cars not keeping up, etc.

well we didnt set it up as a highway racing cruise, its just a big meet, and a cruise with lots of pics, just to get ourselves established and "known" which we are doing a good job of. we have a myspace group/page as well with over 80 members and so far we have a lot of support. and the group is managed by a couple of my best friends.

The only p[roblem is that when you have to many people, the group gets split up fast and somepeople like to haul *** while others like to cruise.

Be glad to meet you when you get to town. It's really just a matter of ironing out all of the kinks of a new setup. If I don't have the car done and the weather's nice, I might just cruise along on my bike if you don't mind. My 06 Gixxer 1000 is a year old and it's only got 600 miles on it. It's been a busy year to say the LEAST and the bike could use the miles .
